Just strained my black currents from making black current vinegar and thought why not make some sweet chutney. So I threw in a pan , black currents from the vinegar , apples, onions, beet root, 750 mls of white vinegar, 250 black current vinegar and 2 kg sugar. Given them a nice slow simmer and now off to bring to the boil and thicken and put in jars. Oh I forgot the half of very finely chopped chilli . Smells lovely . Just hope it turns out alright.I think I'll call it ' black current and red love chutney'The apples are from the red love apple tree that's miss behaving by flowering now.

Yes the flavor of the black currents is still there with a little bit of a bite too.I sieved the black currents out in the end and ended up with a acidic jelly .I think it will be good with cold strong flavored meats.
